initial WordPress configuration
So myStuff WordPress is loaded, now lets start adding a couple of my favorite plugins:
- Akismet – Let’s enable it since this blog will be open to comments
- InfiniteWP – A great multi-WordPress management / admin tool which I used to load all the plugins here.
- Limit Login Attempts – To prevent some Brute-force attack. I did change increase the lock out minutes and enable email to admin.
- WordPress SEO – A must have and you need to configure it correctly including setting up Google Webmaster tools, Bing Webmaster tools and the socials to enable Open Graph.
- WP Smush.it – If you dont optimize and compress your images or Imsanity if need to automatically resize huge images
Plugins that I have loaded but only activate when needed
- WP-Optimize – To clean up my DB
